Free Trade

The reduction of internal revenue and
the taking off of revenue stamps from
Proprietary Medicines, no doubt has
largely benefited the consumers. as well
as relieving the burden of home manu-
features. Especially is this the case with
GREEN'S AuguSt FIoaoeT and B0schee's Ger
man Syrup, as the reduction of thirty six
cents per dozen, has been added to in
crease the size of the bottles containing
these remedies, thereby giving one-fifth
more medicine in the Is cent size. The
August Ftotoer for Dyspepsia and Liver
Complaint, and the German Syrup for
Cough and Lung troubles, have perhaps,
the largest sale of any medicines in the
world The advantage of increased size
of the bottles will be greatly appreciated
by the sick and afflicted, in every town
and village in civilized countries Sam
pie bottle for 10 cents remain the same

lion of the people in the absence of Moses
and the setting up of Golden Calf-the
Second Gift of the Law-the erection of
the Tabernacle and institution of the three
great annual festivals of the Jews-Pass-
over, Penticost and Feast of Tabernacles,
and concluded with the March to Sinai
